I love teaching and working with learners of all ages. I believe everyone learns at their own speed and that learners should be empowered to ask the questions they want answered. By doing so, they help set the agenda and pace of their learning, which ensures their motivation and full engagement in their educational process. My learner-centered approach has been developed during 20 plus years as an English professor and fifteen years as a father. My style incorporates the Socratic dialogue method to engage your student in dialogue that accepts and validates their questions and concerns. I have been told that my teaching style is inclusive, not overbearing, patient, and low-key. My students gain self-confidence in their new skills and abilities and have gone on to become lawyers, doctors, writers, editors, and teachers of English. I have helped thousands of learners advance in their studi

I love children and I am a patient and caring teacher. My mother is an educational diagnostician and an expert on learning disabilities and different learning styles. As a result I believe I have special insight into the way children learn and I can adapt my teaching style to fit the individual needs of each child I tutor. In high school I took AP calculus classes, earning college credit and fulfilling the math requirement for my undergraduate degree. I tutored my peers in math while earning my BBA in finance, and taking elective classes in accounting and economics. I also worked for a tutoring service, helping high school students with math and SAT and ACT prep. I am currently a candidate in the Certified Financial Analyst program.

As a recent graduate of Gettysburg College, a prestigious liberal arts college on the East Coast, I believe I am at a very opportune time in my life to effectively tutor children and young men and women. I feel I am experienced enough to have an exceptional understanding of the subject material, but I also feel I am young enough where I can connect with both young kids and high school students. I graduated Cum Laude from Gettysburg College in 2009 with a BA in Business Management and a minor in Health Sciences. I am strong in both English and the sciences, and I feel my cumulative GPA of 3.41 at a reputable school like Gettysburg shows that I have the intellect and work ethic to be a successful tutor. Having been a lacrosse coach for the past five years will really help me assist every person I tutor in reaching his/her goals. Every child is different, and I have found that finding o

Children can learn in a variety of ways. Some are more comfortable hearing instruction, others should be shown visually.... and others use a mix.Safety and security, along with comfort is critical to success. Methods utilized will vary upon the needs of the learner. The instructor must be flexible and adapt to the circumstances and needs of the child, teen or adult. Experiential learning is the best way for children to learn and retain the message. Therefore, creativity is important. A tutor may use jingles, rhymes or real life experiences as a way to help a child remember the lessons. Adult learners have their struggles too! Patience and understanding is univeral, no matter the age of the learner. I hold a Master of Business Administration and have been in the Business industry focusing on Marketing for over 10 years. Specifically, the education business industry developing a national e

My teaching style is very patient, kind, and laid back. I believe that everyone has the potential to learn and finish the work they are given, so I very rarely tell someone how to finish a problem or correct a sentence. Instead, I give suggestions of things to think about and ask a lot of questions so that the student can get to the answer themselves. I will gladly point them in the right direction but hesitate to ever point to the answer as I feel the lesson is very easily lost. I see a power in one-on-one teaching/learning and therefore have a great appreciation for tutoring. A large part of earning my B.A. in Business Management consisted of writing reports and papers for everything from English to Market Research. In order to be successful in the business or psychology world, one has to have great writing and verbal skills to talk to clients and write up reports of findings. I have h
